Hello Steph! Our Forum is 98% exclusively dedicated to answer questions from members that need help completing a project, we don’t have a big audience here to do project discover. Almost everyone comes to the Forum just to get help. 

• Our blog is where people actually find our projects and you get more feedback: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/

Thanks for your interest!
Regards,
Rui

Hello Rui,

Okay, I didn’t necessarily understand that people came here exclusively for help… I’m sorry about that. But as Sara had encouraged me to post the tutorial on sleep modes here, I had understood that the interest of the forum was broader. I misunderstood, so I apologize.

Nevertheless, have you planned a special section on RNT inviting members of your community to share projects that could be of interest to everyone?

Now, if it’s not in your plans, which I can understand very well, I won’t bother you anymore with my experiments 🙂

However, I’m still listening here to help people solve their difficulties if I can. It’s true that I haven’t been very talkative lately, but people have been asking a lot of questions around your last ESP-CAM book, and as I haven’t received the equipment I ordered yet, I’m a bit stuck in this area.

Regards,
Steph

Hello again!

I’ve been receiving on average 50 emails per day that require response + a few questions in our Forum + Facebook group + comment’s in your blog.

We’re currently overwhelmed with too many channels that require our response and we don’t have the resources to do anything else at the moment.

We can only answer those current channels and keep creating more content, otherwise we would spend all day just answering questions.

I appreciate you sharing your projects and I like to take a look at them! I do see the possibility to share projects, but that would require a website like Hackster, Hackaday or Instructables that have a big team.

The best way is still using our Facebook group to share them.

Makrdown should also work in your current comment’s section over at: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/

If you have any problems with your ESP32-CAM, feel free to post them! I’m happy to help.

Regards,
Rui

Thank you Rui for your interest in my experiments.

I am well aware that meeting the demands of your multiple readers, and continuing to produce new content at the same time, doesn’t leave you much room to breathe!

Using comments on RNT? Well, I’ll deal with it… I’ll come and test Markdown at least!
But Facebook is not an option for me, unfortunately.

And if I have a problem with one of your projects, I know where to come for help 😉

Regards,
Steph

Exactly, it’s been hard to balance the time helping vs posting new projects.

Yes, in the comment’s section in the RNT blog, you should be able to use markdown (I’ll try to make it easier and improve the comment’s section).

Right now, we’re focused on organizing the content in our blog:

• https://randomnerdtutorials.com/projects-esp32/
• https://randomnerdtutorials.com/projects-esp8266/
• https://randomnerdtutorials.com/projects-esp32-cam/

I agree! I just use Facebook, because a lot of people is already there.

Have a great weekend!

Rui

Hi Rui!

About Facebook, we understand each other 😉

I just discovered the new organization of the RNT website. It’s really much clearer like that!
Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Best wishes,
Steph

Hello, where i can find info on this project? 

Hi Nicola,

Nobody here seemed to be interested in it a year ago… So I didn’t publish anything about this project, sorry. I might do it one day, but I have so many other projects going on that I can’t afford to look into it now.

Hi Steph, it is strange nobody interested in such a project, maybe wrong place.
I’m in search of info on gaming with esp32, i hope you can help.
Thank you very much

You can have a look at the ESPboy project which uses an ESP8266.

Otherwise, you can also turn to the M5STACK Faces Kit with Keyboard/Game/Calculator to have a complete ESP32 device to act as a game handheld.

Regards,
Steph

Thanks, I’ll have a look.
I hope one day you can share your project, it look very interesting for me. 

‘Instructables Circuits’ seems like a pretty useful place to publish a self built ESP32 based project. You would get a much higher exposure there and probably more people interested. That site even has guidance on the art of self publishing and has many existing ESP32 based projects already. And its free.

Hi Ian,

Yes, thank you for your advice.
I myself had spotted the following platforms:

• instructables
• Hackaday.io
• hackster.io
• Maker Pro

The problem with most of these platforms unfortunately is that you have to write your tutorial with their publishing format… and it’s not practical at all. I find it tedious actually. I usually write my content in my programming environment (VScode) with Markdown and publish it on GitHub Pages which gives you all the freedom you want and allows you to manage your tutorial like a Git project. They could also propose a showcase where you can publish a detailed announcement with a link to the original content.

Thanks again,
Steph

I guess you were before your time Steph. Your input here has been very useful to me. Please keep posting.

Thank you Steve for your support. It makes me even happier that the compliment comes from an knowledgeable reader who seems to have a lot of experience in the field of microcontrollers. I’m not far behind and I continue to read your wise advice on the forum regularly. I have a lot to share with anyone who wants it. I have a few ideas for tutorials in mind, and I will try to find the time to write them up to share with you.

Thanks to you Steve

I have a few ideas for tutorials myself but never get the time to write them up (Nor do I have the writing skills). Maybe one day….
